[Renaud]

The French Maritime Museum displayed until the early 2000's a contemporary 1/66 model of the Redoutable, a bit too far away from the window, along with Hoche, before she was suddenly removed to be stored somewhere in the storeroom, in the fort d'Issy. By that time, I could only take some shots with an analog camera, under poor light. The place where it could be seen remained empty until the Museum was closed, prior to a general refit of the collections. Will it reappear in Paris when the Museum open again in 2022, unless being displayed somewhere else, in Brest or so? However, I could admire not long time ago the model of the Dévastation, full-rigged, 1/66, in the Maritime Museum in Rochefort, I couldn't stop taking some pictures of.
